Controversies erupt in classrooms and in the professions concerning diversity, and many of these controversies include ethical components. For instance, is the sexual orientation of a significant company’s CEO newsworthy? Should news organizations publish mug shots if research shows they contribute to stereotyping? Journalists may disagree about what is appropriate, but all usually cite ethical principles in justifying their positions. This panel will help educators see the ethical angles in these situations and become more comfortable with talking about them in productive ways with students.
